    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertensive_encephalopathy

    Diagnostic methods for hypertensive encephalopathy include physical examination, blood pressure measurement, blood sampling, ECG, EEG, chest X-ray, urinalysis, arterial blood gas analysis, and imaging of the head (CAT scan and/or MRI). Since decreasing blood pressure is essential, anti-hypertensive medication is administered without awaiting ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_venous_insufficiency

    If the impaired vein function causes significant symptoms, such as swelling and ulcer formation, it is referred to as chronic venous disease. [3] It is sometimes called chronic peripheral venous insufficiency and should not be confused with post-thrombotic syndrome in which the deep veins have been damaged by previous deep vein thrombosis .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertensive_emergency

    A hypertensive emergency is not based solely on an absolute level of blood pressure, but also on a patient's baseline blood pressure before the hypertensive crisis occurs.

    In contrast there is no evidence that blood pressure needs to be lowered rapidly in hypertensive urgencies, where there is no evidence of target organ damage; over-aggressive reduction of blood pressure is not without risks. [3] Use of oral medications to lower the BP gradually over 24 to 48h is advocated in hypertensive urgencies. [4]

In general, fewer than 25 percent of diabetics have good control of their blood pressure. The ...

  7. Complications of prolonged standing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complications_of_prolonged...

    The basic physiological change that occurs in the body during prolonged standing or sudden stand from supine position is that there will be increased pooling of blood in the legs. This decreases the venous return, and so there will be decreased cardiac output, which ultimately causes systolic blood pressure to fall (hypotension).
